The head teacher looked at the little boy in front of him with trepidation. Although he was young, his sinister eyes were enough to make people feel uneasy, and even an adult would feel a little nervous.
"Mr. Huo, the little girl you're looking for dropped out of school yesterday."
"I heard her father had a job transfer and had moved."
"I don't know where to move to..."
Xiao Songli and his family moved to a small county town.
A very quiet and leisurely county town with underdeveloped economy but simple folk customs.
There was a very large swing downstairs in the new house. As soon as little Song Li saw the swing, the sadness he felt because of moving away from his friends and living in an unfamiliar environment immediately disappeared.
Like a happy little bird, she ran straight to the swing and started swinging.
There was also a burst of giggles.
The bright and cheerful smile on their daughter's face relaxed Yan Shen and Song Lingwen's tense nerves a little, and they finally smiled after these few days.
Little Song Li's life returned to normal and he met new friends in the new kindergarten.
Until a month later.
Little Song Li, who was sitting at the kindergarten gate, waited for a long time but didn't see her father or mother coming to pick her up. All the other children in the kindergarten had been picked up, and she was the only one left sitting there in a daze.
The teacher called Song Lingwen and Yan Shen, but no one answered.
"Mom and Dad may have something to do. I'll wait for them." Little Song Li smiled and comforted the teacher who looked a little uneasy and worried, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
She was carrying a small schoolbag, holding a furry little cat stuffed animal in one hand and supporting her chin with the other hand. She sat on the steps of the kindergarten, staring intently at the front.
Why haven’t mom and dad come yet?
She is so hungry...
Xiao Songli waited until dark, but his parents still didn't show up.
Finally, the police came and took her away.
Song Lingwen and Yan Shen were in a car accident and died on the spot.
Little Song Li didn't cry or make a fuss. She behaved very quietly and said to the officer who tried to comfort her, "Uncle police officer, I want to see my mom and dad."
The little girl, who was less than six years old, raised her head and smiled brightly. "Mom and Dad won't abandon Ali. I want to see them."
In the end, little Song Li did not get to see his parents because the scene of the car accident was so tragic. There was an explosion and only charcoal was left of the bodies inside.
In the end, little Song Li only saw a box of ashes at his parents' funeral.
Then, a group of people who had never been seen before, who were said to be relatives of the parents, ran over, accused and cursed each other, and fought for the custody of little Song Li.
It is said that Xiao Songli's parents left behind a considerable inheritance, otherwise these people would not be willing to take over a burden.
Little Song Li remained silent the entire time, quietly cradling her cat stuffed animal, neither crying nor making a fuss. Her large, beautiful, dark eyes stared silently at her parents' portrait, devoid of any light, as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
Those so-called relatives looked at Xiao Songli and talked to her in front of her without any care, and glanced at her with disgust and contempt.
"You didn't even cry when your parents died. What a cold-blooded monster."
"Her eyes are so scary, maybe she has some mental illness."
"Why did she get into a car accident out of nowhere? Could it be that she is unlucky for her parents?"
"Grim little money-loser, not at all likable."
"Just like her vixen mother, she is cold-blooded and ruthless at such a young age."
"That's right, look at her expression... She won't look at me again, will she? What are you looking at, you silly girl? I'll dig your eyes out!"
"He's just a money-loser. Why should I give my son's inheritance to this money-loser?"
"What property is left by your son? It's clearly left by my cousin!"
"Bah! That woman is spending all my son's money. Where does she get the money from?"
"If your son hadn't seduced my cousin, she would have married into a wealthy family long ago..."
"Who would be interested in that shameless vixen..."
The further they talked, the more excited they became, and they started arguing.
Xiao Songli watched coldly without saying a word.
After the funeral, relatives of the Yan and Song families fought over custody. Whoever gets custody of little Song Li can divide more property.
The lawsuit lasted for more than a year.
After their parents' property was divvied up by these people, the relatives who had once used sweet words to coax little Song Li into choosing them as guardians began to dislike her as an eyesore, forcing her to eat for free at their house. She was denied food, forced to sleep in the bathroom, and even in winter, she wore thin summer clothes, her fingers developing frostbite. All sorts of sarcastic insults and beatings were commonplace.
Even though Xiao Songli took on all the housework and worked from morning to night without eating or drinking, he was still pointed at on the head and scolded as a burden who came to take advantage of the house.
These relatives wanted to send Xiao Songli to an orphanage, but unfortunately he did not meet the requirements and the orphanage refused to accept him. Abandonment was also illegal, so they could only push him around, with one family raising him for a month and another family raising him for a month.
Little Song Li was like a ball, being kicked around by these relatives, and his personality became more and more depressed.
When Song Li was seven years old, a group of people suddenly came to the relative's house where he was staying.
Those who dress extravagantly must be either rich or noble.
"Are you A Ling's daughter? You look just like her." The leading man looked over with a smile. He was about forty years old, and his every move was extraordinary, with an air of nobility and pampered luxury.
It doesn't fit in with the surrounding environment.
Although he was no longer young, his face was still extremely handsome, and the fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes added to his mature charm. His deep and beautiful eyes stared at Xiao Songli infatuatedly, as if he was looking through her at someone else.
